Game

• The Darkness Falls RvR Dungeon is now open to all realms, regardless of outpost control in the frontiers! 
• A special Darkness Falls merchant will be up on the classic-world side of Castle Sauvage, Svasud Faste, and Druim Ligen for the duration of the event.
  • This merchant will be selling Seals of Demonic Return, which allow users to access Darkness Falls even when their realm doesn't have control of the Frontiers. Stock up while you can!
  • The merchant will also be selling Scrolls of Recall, Flames of Demonic Innovation, and the Eye of Fates. Get 'em while they're hot!

• The Darkness Falls dungeon will also grant the following additional bonuses for the duration of the event:
  • 50% bonus to its normal realm point gain, which is already 25% higher than the Frontiers!
  • 50% bonus to its normal experience gain, which is already 100% higher than classic-world zones!

The event will run through Monday, July 27th!

With our server downtime today, the following changes have been made:

General

Renvek got his name from his father’s own Dark Age of Camelot character and we are proud to honor the request to put an NPC that suits his playful nature into the game. For more information on Renvek's story, you can visit his facebook page HERE.

• A new NPC, Renvek Larson, has been added to the towns of Mularn, Cotswold, and Mag Mell.
  • Renvek will grant level 5+ characters a new quest called: “[For Renvek] Finders Seekers”
  • Crafters will love his sense of style!
  • Take time out of your play-session to pay him a visit… if you can catch him!

New Frontiers

• The remaining pathing updates from 1.118 have been made to the NF zones. Players should see considerable improvement around the Alb "maze" areas and various bridges.

Otherworlds

• King Uther, Ymir, and Queen Cliodna's difficulty have been reduced further.
• The Energetic Collections quests in each realm can now only be completed by killing succubi in the Darkness Falls dungeon.
  • Darkness Falls will be open to all 3 realms this weekend for an event, but more on that tomorrow!

Bug Fixes

• Players can once again purchase Dragonsworn armor or shields that show +15 or +22 prior to being spellcrafted as both versions will now grant the correct +15 stat after spellcrafting.
  • Fixes an issue where newly crafted Dragonsworn items were showing higher stat values for inherent stat bonuses (+22 instead of +15).
    • Note that this fix will not affect existing Dragonsworn items that are already showing the +22 value; those items will still revert down to +15 after being imbued.
  • Fixes an issue where previously crafted Dragonsworn items that were showing +15 on their inherent stat bonuses would revert to +10 when spellcrafted. These items now retain the +15 value after being imbued.
  • In other words, all Dragonsworn items that have inherent stat bonuses on them will now give the proper +15 bonus after being imbued or spellcrafted, including items that are only partially spellcrafted.
    • Note that this fix will not affect any Dragonsworn items that have the incorrect +10 bonus showing and are already fully imbued/spellcrafted.
• Equipped weapons that are not actively being wielded will no longer grant +skills to the character.
• Several issues with extraneous stat bonus values and unusable charges in the Koalinth Caverns revamped dungeon loot have been fixed.

Guilds

• New guild creation is temporarily disabled until some issues with newly formed guilds and their home server can be resolved.

• Items spellcrafted and imbued prior to 1.118 will have the correct stat values that they had prior to the patch.
• Player-crafted shields will once again be able to be spellcrafted.
• +Skills on shields will once again affect characters when equipped.

• Newly created Dragonsworn crafted armors and shields with +15 stat bonuses on them will now display as +22 on the Market Explorer or when delving them from your inventory prior to them being imbued with spellcrafted gems.
• • Once imbued, the delve will change back down the correct +15 value.
  • This is a display issue but will help players differentiate these newly created dragonsworn shields and armor from ones created prior to the 1.118 patch.
• Dragonsworn crafted armors and shields with +15 stat bonuses on them created prior to the 1.118 patch will display as +15 on the Market Explorer or when delving them from your inventory prior to being imbued with spellcrafted gems.
  • Once imbued, the delve will change down to an incorrect value of +10.
  • As such, we encourage players to avoid imbuing any Dragonsworn shields or armor that display +15 stat bonuses if the armor or shield has not been imbued at all yet. If it has been imbued and still displays +15 to a stat, then the item is correct.
• All Dragonsworn crafted armors and shields that had already been imbued before 1.118 should will now have the proper +15 stat bonus.

• Items spellcrafted prior to 1.118 will have the correct stat values that they had prior to the patch.
• Player-crafted shields will once again be able to be spellcrafted.
• +Skills on shields will once again affect characters when equipped.

We'll update this post tomorrow morning with the exact server down time and the expected maintenance length. Please accept our apologies for the extra downtime and we appreciate your patience as we get these issues corrected! Finally, please don't hesitate to report any other issues found between now and then via the /reportbug command in-game, thanks!
